Hi,
Am rebuilding the engine in my 2001 starwagon which is a 4g64 auto. The balance shaft bearing appears to have failed which has resulted in one of the big ends failing and ruining the crankshaft. Anyway had to get another bottom end which I am rebuilding. I have a workshop manual but the tension spec for the con rod cap bolts seems to high. After a bit of research I have discovered there is a six bolt and seven bolt block which have different crankshafts and rods and different size con rod bolts. 8mm for the 7 bolt engine and 9mm for the 6 bolt engine. My engine is a seven bolt which has the smaller 8mm con rod bolts. Can anyone tell me the correct torque spec for these bolts?
